The Camino de Santiago is one of the most famous, and well walked, pilgrim route in the world. There are several recognised routes, and our school is located on the Northern path (Camino del Norte) and very near Camino Lebaniego and Vadiniense. We will teach you relevant Spanish in the mornings and take you to walk some of the classic sections of the Camino in the afternoons.  The sections you will walk are less steep than most in the Picos de Europa and all have great views. We might take an occasional rest to eat and try the traditional local cider and cheese. Please note that this itinerary can be flipped so you can be walking in the morning and in class in the afternoons.

This course runs every week from Monday to Friday. Weekends are free for you to explore the area on your own, or we can help you with booking activities. The price includes:

Spanish intensive course with a maximum of 6 people, with enrolment, materials, level test if appropriate, notebook and pen.
